Lyrics
I used to be the whisper in the hall, The warmth in every smile, the comfort to call. A friend to all, a beacon in their dark,
No hint of power, just a gentle spark.But something shifted; I began to rise, A sudden lift, a soaring to the skies.
My confidence grew wings and spread, No longer silent, my voice boldly said—
"I'm here to make a difference, to change the game, No longer timid, no longer the same."My success became the talk of town, The quiet girl had donned a crown. I saw the glances, felt the subtle sneer, The ones who cheered me now filled with fear."She's changed," they said with narrowed eyes,
"Used to be sweet, now she wears disguise. She used to be our bestie, soft and kind,
Now she's so distant, out of our mind."But their bestie is gone, that girl is no more, She's climbed beyond what they could ignore.
Her ambition, once quiet, is now a roar, A force of nature, ready to soar.They loved me when I stayed below, When my dreams were small, my progress slow.
But now I'm moving, I'm reaching high,
Beyond their comfort, beyond their sky.So friends fall away, their faces turned, The warmth we shared, it’s all but burned.
They liked me when I was a step behind, When my aspirations were undefined.I see it in their eyes,
that bitter glare, They'd rather keep me down, they'd rather share Their lukewarm dreams, their settled life, They shun the one who chose the strife.I miss the laughter, I miss the ease,
But I won’t trade my growth to please. The journey's hard, but I won't regress, I’ve found my power, I must confess. So let them talk, let them shake their heads,
I’m on my path, I’ve earned my creds. And if it means I walk alone, I’ll do it gladly, I’ve claimed my throne....
